1968 Map of Ellington
USGS Topo · Published 1977About this map
Ellington serves as the primary hub in this late 1960s Ozark landscape, where the town's grid meets the curving waters of Logan Creek. The map reveals a deeply dissected terrain characterized by numerous family-named valleys such as Dickson Valley and Darr Valley. Evidence of earlier industrial transport is visible in the Old Railroad Grade winding through the western hills, while the Deer Run Lookout Tower stands as a sentinel over the surrounding Deer Run State Forest. For local historians and genealogists, the sheet is exceptionally well-marked with burial grounds, including the Ellington Memorial Cem, Chitwood Cem, and Dickson Cem. The settlement pattern follows the hollows and creek beds, with Bethlehem Ch and the small community of Ruble anchoring the southern reaches near Webb Creek.
